More quotes by Mos Def
To me, it's like happiness is about happiness, but happiness is a fight.
Mos Def
Fame is like getting across the street. It's like, if there's nothing to be across the street for, it's a pointless destination. It's like, I gotta get across the street, man! I gotta be there! I gotta be there! Then you get across the street and you're like, Yeah I'm here! And then, that's it. Fame doesn't make you particularly happy.
Mos Def
I don't rap like nobody, I don't try to sound like nobody.
Mos Def
When people say I don't see you enough, well just because you don't see me don't mean I don't exist or just 'cause you haven't heard me don't mean I haven't been making noise. But if I keep making noise, you'll pick up.
Mos Def
They say that when a man faces his destiny, the destiny ends and he becomes the man that he really is.
Mos Def
I'm a passionate person. I'm a lot of things, like most people are. Most people are dynamic. The focus is not on me though, I'm a screen. The aim is to always keep myself in the position where the screen is clear.
Mos Def
I seen her on the ave, spotted her more than once. Ass so fat that you could see it from the front.
Mos Def
Everything's got space between it, the planets, trees, your eyes. Your eyes get too close together, it's a whole different world. You can lose perspective.
Mos Def
Restlessness is my nemesis. It's hard to just chill and sit still.
Mos Def
All the things that are worth doing, take time.
Mos Def
And from the moment that I saw you, I knew you was trouble, But I disregarded detour signs, And did not stop til you was mine. I guess God was like, 'Aight, fine.' Careful what you wish for, cause you just might get it in heaps. Try to give it back, He be like, 'Nah, that's yours to keep.'
Mos Def
You can positively affect and change a social circumstance with art, and it’s vital that a change happens now.
Mos Def
That's what I've been trying to strive for - to draw a clear picture, to open up a new dimension.
Mos Def
Every time you ask yourself where hip-hop's going, ask yourself where you're going how are you doing?
Mos Def
I don't hate nobody. I hate certain conditions that are inflicted upon the people - and they're helpless with it.
Mos Def
The moment you start thinking it's hopeless, then it is. [But], if you think it's gonna get better, it really does. Life is a test.
Mos Def
That idea of peace and love toward humanity shouldn't be nationalistic or denominational. It should be a chief concern for all mankind.
Mos Def
If Islam's sole interest is the welfare of mankind, then Islam is the strongest advocate of human rights anywhere on Earth.
Mos Def
Live now for the promise of the Infinite
Mos Def
With guys I revere, like Marcus Garvey or Malcolm X, their look is less about style than purpose and the expression of beauty. It wasn't just about being noticed, you know?
Mos Def
